Recent research
estimates that as many as 75-90% of visits to the doctor’s office
involve nonspecific stress-related illnesses. Stress may show up in a
myriad of physical symptoms, including increased blood pressure and heart
rate, a reduction of digestive activity, muscle tension, and hyper- alertness.
Stress can also manifest in more chronic conditions, such as increased
blood pressure, tension headaches, pain, insomnia, decreased immune system,
allergies, isolation, loneliness, depression, anxiety, and addictions.
The core of Randi
Botnick's training focuses on stress management instruction. Deep
Breathing recharges the body with fresh, new oxygen. It also
quiets the mind and signals to the brain to disengage the Fight-or-Flight
Response and return to the Relaxation Response, whereby the natural healing
abilities of the body are allowed to function optimally.
Guided Relaxation
helps to retrain you to relax the entire body using auto response.
Guided Imagery
allows the mind to journey to soothing, peaceful vistas that are as real
to the subconscious as the physical world is to he conscious mind.
Guided Meditation
is an effective tool used to train you to focus and develop a calm relaxation
response, thereby improving memory, and promoting detachment, discernment
and intuition.
